Tim and Abbie were always friends of friends. In high school, Tim often attended Abbie's volleyball games because he had many close friends who went to her school, though Abbie was not aware of this. On occasion, Tim would talk to Abbie's family or slide up on her social media stories. This led to Abbie being confused and concerned that Tim was a little odd. After some conversations and interactions throughout the rest of high school and college, however, Abbie found herself very drawn to Tim's joy for the Lord, love for life, and magnetic personality. In the fall of 2023, Abbie moved back home from college, and Tim quickly found himself back in her social media messages. He said that he could not help but respond to her bright light for Jesus and her beautiful smile. That same week, they saw each other at a high school basketball game, and they could not stop talking. At the end of the game, Tim was emphatic that they needed to get coffee as soon as possible; he could not let her slip away again. Through many more coffee dates, hangouts, facetimes, and group game nights, Tim and Abbie became the best of friends. It did not take long for Tim to ask Abbie on an official first date to Lucas Oil Stadium for an Indianapolis Colts' game. Throughout the next several months, they both fell more in love with each other as they fell more in love with Jesus together. Both Tim and Abbie can so clearly see and boast in the faithfulness and kindness of the Lord through their beautiful story.
